STANDING STONE (unlocated) in Doonfin

STANDING STONE (unlocated)

What is recorded here

Standing stone hidden in Doonfin, not a point on any modern map, but a marker the land remembered before human boundaries. It may have guided herds, warned travelers, or simply watched the valley breathe through seasons no one named. Its absence from common knowledge does not diminish it; it suggests the stone still belongs to the place rather than to people who wish to own or display it.
The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as STANDING STONE (unlocated). Recorded period: UNCERTAIN; PREHISTORIC. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, this standing stone may have functioned as a ritual or territorial marker. No specific folklore or detailed use is recorded for this site.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
